The artwork titled “Things from the Flood” was created by Simon Stålenhag in 2016. It belongs to the art movement of Digital Art and is classified within the genre of illustration. This piece is a part of the series “Things from the Flood”.
The artwork depicts a desolate, snow-covered landscape characterized by an icy road that winds through the scene. On either side of the road, two large, abandoned machines, which resemble futuristic or otherworldly crafts, are partially obscured by snow. The stark environment is painted in muted tones of white, gray, and blue, evoking a sense of stillness and isolation. The machinery appears weathered and aged, suggesting that they have been left here for an extended period. In the sky above, a group of birds is in flight, adding a sense of movement to the otherwise static and serene scene. The overall impression is one of melancholy and intrigue, blending the natural world with a sci-fi aesthetic.
